A man has been arrested for hate-motivated mischief in Antigonish.

Police say last month a suspect recorded a video of a group of women and children in a public park July 24.

Then four days later a man left garbage and urine at the door of a mosque.

Officers believe the same man was involved in both crimes.

The 69-year-old is facing charges for both.

He has been released on conditions and will appear in court in October.
